WASHINGTON — The Department of War has launched a new public-facing Investment Intelligence Center designed to provide unprecedented transparency into nearly $6.7 billion in federal investments aimed at strengthening America's defense industrial base and reducing supply chain vulnerabilities.

Announced Thursday by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of War for Industrial Base Policy (OASW (IBP)), the online platform offers an interactive look at Defense Production Act (DPA) and Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) investments made since 2015.

The initiative represents one of the most comprehensive efforts by the department to publicly map defense-related industrial investments across the United States, providing industry leaders, policymakers, researchers, and investors with detailed insights into national security priorities.

Assistant Secretary of War for Industrial Base Policy Mike Cadenazzi said the new platform is intended to strengthen collaboration between government and industry.

"A resilient defense industrial base requires transparent partnerships between the government and the private sector. By openly mapping our DPA and IBAS investments, we are sending a clear demand signal to industry and private capital markets about our most critical national security priorities."

The Investment Intelligence Center allows users to explore projects through multiple visualization tools, including an interactive map, a Mekko chart, and a searchable investment database.

Users can filter projects by technology sector, geographic location, funding mechanism, and investment year, offering a multidimensional view of how federal resources have been directed toward strengthening domestic manufacturing and industrial resilience.

Officials say the platform is designed to highlight the department's broader strategy of revitalizing domestic manufacturing capabilities while reducing dependence on foreign and potentially adversarial supply chains.

Recent concerns over critical mineral access, semiconductor production, advanced manufacturing capacity, and global supply chain disruptions have intensified federal efforts to reshore essential industrial capabilities.

The new dashboard also provides Congress, defense analysts, and private-sector stakeholders with a clearer picture of how government funding has been allocated to address supply chain weaknesses and expand domestic production capacity.

Defense industrial policy has increasingly become a focal point of national security planning as geopolitical competition and global supply disruptions expose vulnerabilities in critical sectors.

The department's investment portfolio spans multiple technology areas and manufacturing sectors considered essential to maintaining military readiness and technological superiority.

By making these investments publicly accessible through an interactive platform, the department hopes to encourage additional private-sector participation and provide greater visibility into long-term industrial priorities.

The Office of the Assistant Secretary of War for Industrial Base Policy oversees efforts to strengthen and sustain domestic and international industrial partnerships that support military capabilities and future defense requirements.

The Investment Intelligence Center is now available to industry partners, researchers, policymakers, and the public through the Department of War's Business Defense portal.
